説明

GÀR=abbuttum meant a slave mark. The word abbuttum is written in § 1 of Sumerian Family Laws, §§ 51-52 of Code of the Eshnunna, § 146, 226-227 of the Code of Hammurabi, family law documents, grammatical texts, omen texts, and so on. What the abbuttum in Old-Babylonian period was has been discussed by many Assyriologists and scholars of cuneiform laws. It seems that their opinions are divided into the following three groups.<br>1) Haartracht theory (Landsberger)<br>2) Fessel-tag theory (Koschaker, Goetze)<br>3) tatoo theory (Driver-Miles, Szlechter)<br>On this problem, the clause of abbuttum gullubu has more important mean than that of abbuttam šakanu. gullubu means to shave. Therefore abbuttum was the thing which can be shaved. abbuttum was not a chain (tag), nor tatoo, but abbuttum-lock. The purpose of abbuttum worn by a slave was merely to confirm his master's ownership. abbuttum was not a mark to denote the severe distinction of classes.
